Ballet Pécs 60 jubilee gala
19:00 | National Theatre of Pécs - Grand Theatre
TicketsBallet Pécs celebrates its 60th jubilee in 2021.
The Ballad of Loathing was the very first production of Ballet Pécs that debuted on 3 January 1961.
Imre Eck's iconic choreography to Sándor Szokolay's composition has been performed several times to celebrate an important jubilee of the company.
To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the foundation of Ballet Pécs a brand new concept was developed by director Balázs Vincze. Fresh contemporary choreography was created by Lóránd Zachár to Sándor Szokolay's original music. To follow the concept new costumes were created by designer Viktor Kozarics.
The Ballad of Loathing can be seen in the first part of the gala evening.
More than ballet- a documentary about the company's past and present is to debut as the second part of the gala evening.
